Temperature

As April transitions into May, a subtle temperature shift is observed, with average highs adjusting from 76.6°F (24.8°C) to a still moderately hot 83.7°F (28.7°C). Throughout May, the temperature tends to fall to a consistent average low of 62.4°F (16.9°C).

Heat index

During May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Continued exposure and engagement in activity might trigger tiredness and subsequently heat cramps.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
